How can an inmate reply to my letter

What specifically does the inmate have to put on the letter to let you guys know to scan into my account? Just my name? And does he need money to send respond to a letter?

We get hundreds of incoming letters per day. They are all scanned and matched to the name of the addressee. There is no cost to the inmate, we charge $1.49 for the retrieval of the letters.
